Sniper scope cross hairs
The sniper cross hairs are different from socom 2 its like a little thick cross as ur aimer. I dont think they should do that cuz if u see a little bit of a guy sticking out from a side the crosshairs will cover it up and u wont be able to see em as well.

If you dont believe me look at this picture.

yea. that crosshairs thingy is bothering me

i know its socom but, i liked the milidots (sp?) crosshairs display better. a LOT better. cuz thats what real guns are. and they should put the real scope crosshairs, like the SVD (known to socomers as the SASR) crosshairs, like in Metal Gear Solid 3. that game has the real scopes for every gun. EVEN THE RPG SCOPE THING WICH SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN S3. COME ON. WHATS AN RPG OR AT4 WITHOUT OPTICAL SIGHTS. still quite good, but,, *bohoobohoo* i want the scopes for the rocket launchers *bohoohoo* i know they have those in real life. and the AT4 one has special night Vision optics i think.

one thing about sniping in videogames is when you cant see your enemy due to the obstruction of the "AIMER" its when you have a direct shot. If you are far away and you see someone just aim for the head and try to make it so that instead of him having a head he has the aimer, i gurantee you, he will go down

I loved the scope in S1, and even tho i snipe alot, i can't seem to remember what they were in S2. But my whole point is that if it's not broke, don't fix it.

they should honestly fix the scope due to these problems it may cause

i think the s3 scope does seem like it makes it easier to hit em and kill em but it also feels like its in the way.

I won't make any assumptions until I actually use the scope in gameplay. I don't really mind how the scopes are except for the fact that they need to be realistic. I would love it if there could be a glassy look to the scope, but I for now they are fine haha. I do think it will make sniping easier on the aiming side because the more definite knowledge of where your shot will be going. I wish that we could change our reticles and scope reticles like in some games I have played. Then people would at least have a choice of their favorite.

well, if you look at that image posted in the original post, the yellowish cross at the center is pretty thick and and opaque. In this case, it doesnt seem so bad, but what if you were much further away from your target, just where they start to blend into the fog....Then the new scope could be troublesome, but as it's so well been put before : ill wait till I play the game to actually cry about it.
